Self Challenge

I enjoy the spirit of the Knitting Olympics. I like knowing that there are 3500+ people all working on their individual projects but all in the same spirit of achievement. I'm pleased to read about their progress on their blogs.

I decided to tack on this "team spirit" to my weight loss goals.

This week I signed up for the 2006 SELF challenge - a free, three-month exercise and eating plan. I signed up to give myself some accountability and to read the forums of others striving toward their goals. Today I jumped back on the treadmill and started keeping my online food log. If you would like a "Self Challenge" buddy, I'm your girl. If you want to learn more about the challenge, click here.

I laughed when I read on another site these alternate meanings for common words:

Flabbergasted (adj.) appalled over how much weight you have gained.Abdicate (v.) to give up all hope of ever having a flat stomach.
